HAPPY CHRISTMAS



Hi Folks!

I have been away from BlogLand for a while but wanted to return tonight to wish you a very Happy Christmas.


Cheers to you and good health.  
I forget what that drink was but it tasted much better than it looks . . . lol  . . . either that or I was drunk . . 

I am blessed with a lovely family and I shall be visiting my daughter, Selina, and hubby, Matt, for Christmas Day.  He is doing the cooking ~ all three brothers are very good in the kitchen, taught by their mother, and the youngest, Richard, actually made the semi finals in a well known TV programme, "Professional Master Chef" last month.

On Boxing Day I shall be visiting my son, Jon, and his lady, Lisa and their son, baby Peter . . now 14 months.

Peter is a gift from God and most know I look after him 2 days a week:


He is watching with interest an animated Advent Calendar that a very kind bloggy friend gifted me . . x

He kept pointing at the computer screen and making an enthusiastic  "play more" noise.



I plan to return to BlogLand soon.

Enjoy your Christmas and don't eat too many mince pies . . .

    I received your card. Thank you so much! I have it displayed in the foyer of our home.
    I love the photos that you posted here on your blog.... It is lovely to see you smile.
    I think that Peter looks just like his GrandDad. He is precious.
    I hope that your New Year is wonderfully blessed.
    Sending you hugs and great big smiles!

  3. Eddie, you said that 2014 got 7 /10 from you. Chris and I gave it 2/10...one of those two points is because we met you.
    Happy Christmas...God bless.

    1. Thank you Linda
      And I am very glad you had such a Happy Christmas with your delightful family. They have to be delightful because they have your genes in them.
      I had a wonderful two days, Christmas Day with my daughter and son-in -law. Then the three of us visited my son, future daughter in law and baby Peter who entertained us all afternoon with his one man show he seems to be developing . . . . so funny and adorable . . . . :o)

  12. My Dear Sweet Friend...

    I am a day late, but I wanted to come by and wish you a Happy Christmas, too!

    It sounds like you had a good one, for which I give thanks, and that Peter is PRECIOUS. Careful, I might just nip him while you're not looking. I could use a cute grand like Peter! :-)

    Blessings, Eddie, now and always...

    Hallelujah, Christ is BORN!
